Classification systems relate to the alpha and beta angles in addition to the dynamic coverage index(DCI). Screening programmes for DDH show considerable geographic variation; certain risk factors have been identified which necessitate ultrasound assessment of the newborn. The treatment of DDH has ...
The alpha angle is between 50 and 59, the beta angle is between 55 and 77 degrees, and the patient is younger than 6 weeks of age [11]. Graf Types 2a- and 2a+: The differentiation of Type 2a + and Type 2a- is made after the 6th week. Starting from 55° alpha at 6 ...
Results showed that the boys had a consistently higher alpha angle, a lower beta angle, better head coverage, and larger head size through the 6 months. Differences between the right and left hips were only noted in the beta angle. The containment of the hip was found to increase rapidly ...
Hip Alpha AngleDEFINITION: Using the axial oblique sequence, a circle is centered over femoral head. The angle is formed by: 1) A line parallel to the femoral neck axis 2) A line from the center of the femoral head to the transition of the femoral head into the femoral neck (neck ...
Four angles were used: alpha and beta angle in the lateral plane; gamma and delta angle in the AP plane (Fig. 3). Smaller angle represented greater concavity at the head-neck junction and therefore nearly spherical femoral head, and lower probability of cam-type FAI. On the contrary, ...
Due to the variability of gait environments and individual differences, traditional soft exoskeleton force control methods fail to achieve optimal performance. To enhance adaptability to both environments and individuals, a reinforcement learning-based m
Their method demonstrated significant accuracy, with the average errors in alpha and beta angles being 2.221° and 2.899° respectively. Approximately 93 % of alpha angle estimates and 85 % of beta angle estimates had errors less than 5 degrees, showing the potential of this method for clinical ...
A higher alpha angle has been proposed to correlate with lower hip range of motion, but the association in people with longstanding hip and groin pain is currently unclear. The aims were to: (1) assess the association between range of motion and alpha angle in patients with longstanding hip ...
The reliability of the alpha angle has been shown for quantifying cam deformities in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. An intraoperative navigation tool that provides the ability to compare alpha angle measurements side by side on pre- and post-resection fluoroscopic images has recently been ...
